JTH: I definitely didn’t think that I would ever be on a show like this, but I did have a desire to play a superhero. It’s just like a childhood thing, a dream of mine. I didn’t know what hero, but there’s always kind of been buzz going around on Twitter. There are always these things being posted up about like, ‘Oh, we would love to see Jessie play this character or that character.’ And I’m like, ‘Ooh, that would be fun.’ So, it’s been good. I never thought it would play out like this, but I actually am very grateful that it did. 

JTH: It was nice to see that transition. And it worked in a way that I – knowing A-Train the way that I do – it worked in a way that I believed it. There were so many ideas being thrown around. There were all these things, even thoughts in my own head about like, how do we get A-Train on the right path? And I think the answer from The Boys was, we don’t. We try to, but we don’t. We put him in every scenario where we hope and wish and pray that he is going to do the right thing. But he just doesn’t until he loses control. And that the problem for him is that he’s always his biggest own worst enemy. So until he was able to lose control, now we’re finally able to believe that he sees things from a different perspective. And that’s kind of where we are right now. 

JTH: I just think it was everything. His only last source of unconditional love was his brother. And now his brother doesn’t love him anymore. So like he has nothing. He doesn’t have his identity like who he is. He’s A-Train, the fastest man alive. He is the speedster. Without that, he had nothing. He had no identity. He had no position. No respect. No nothing. He lost it all, and he confronted Blue Hawk to I guess feel better about himself. You wanted to make him pay for us, but I don’t think he ever intended on killing him. He certainly didn’t expect to take it as far as having a heart attack himself in the process. But it was just losing everything that made him lose himself and then he left laid out flat on the pavement after the heart attack. And then waking up from that was his second chance, his first-ever second chance the first time he’s ever actually been able to see past himself. It’s just unfortunate that it comes with a very heavy price. And I just I’m dying to see how that’s going to work. 

JTH: It’s the most important aspect of the show. Yes, it’s fun to be a superhero and do really crazy stuff and like blow stuff up. And as an actor, it is amazing to be doing things that have never been done on television and film before. We do a lot of really creative, innovative, wild, crazy stuff, and that’s fun, but it’s not as important as what you just say. This show has meaning. This show has depth. This show is a way for everyone involved to speak and say what we actually feel and what we actually mean without fear because we get to explore these things on a super level that finally people can like hear it and see it and understand what it is that we’re saying because we get to build these moments up to be larger than life. And I’m just thankful for that. It’s not often that these types of projects come around and the fact that I’m involved in it is a dream come true. 

JTH: I don’t know. I’m going to tell you to keep it real with you. Don’t tell anybody, I said it. But I think that there is a third team that can be formed, and I think A-Train would be a part of it because I don’t see him staying involved and being a part of their initiative. I do not see him joining The Boys either.

Season 3 of The Boys is now streaming on Prime Video.
